I confess, I felt like an imposter at #adi2024 today. I'm just a 3rd Yr PhD student surrounded by amazing people. Everyone appeared to have come with someone. I felt alone, overwhelmed & desperate to have confidence to speak to others more. But, I learned a lot from the speakers.

"My life was for living, but now it’s time for dying" In #DyingMattersAwarenessWeek I recommend DrDr (😊)Wendy Mitchell 's final book "One Last Thing" And her last blog whichmeamitoday.wordpress.com/2024/02/22/my-…

The way we talk about dying matters. #DyingMattersWeek Listen to the experts - dying people, and their closest loved ones. In the end, it's about giving them an opportunity to control the conversation - listening, respecting, supporting. Thanks Dying Matters

.BBC Woman's Hour Huge respect for the views of Liz "blue tick" Carr But some ppl w disability do rationally decide it's better to be dead. We need to give choice to ppl like DrDr (😊)Wendy Mitchell who had #dementia . She recently had to stop eating &drinking as the only way to end her life

Woke up thinking about DrDr (😊)Wendy Mitchell. Not even 4 months since she left us but feels like forever. The world is definitely a little less bright without her wonderful humour, intelligence, bravery, kindness. Sending love to all who miss her x
